My day started out hectic. My daughter, usually easy going and sweet as can be, did not want to be left at her summer camp. After a half hour of struggle I ended up taking her to my office where she sat in the lobby while I worked with a client. I took her to my sister's house during a break.

Needless to say, I was strung out and drained before my day even got started. If it weren't for my favorite breathing exercises I would have been useless all day.

So here is a loving reminder to breathe!

Inhale - nose 4 seconds
Hold - 7 seconds
Exhale - mouth 8 seconds

Keep your tongue on the roof of your mouth on the ridge behind your teeth. Ahhh, that's better...

The blessings we receive are natural extensions of the love that we give.

Receiving is as much a part of a healthy energy system as giving. I remind myself of this truth as I count my abundant blessings this morning.

The old paradigm of "spiritual" includes poverty and renunciation. This is wrong - spirit is abundant, and what a joy to pass it on...

My appearance on Arizona Midday has changed to Tuesday 8/1 between 11 and 12.

In the meantime, Wednesday's appearance on Sonoran Living is still a go!

I will be spreading the word about Personal Energy Management next week on a couple of local television shows! I'm excited to have the opportunity to share the secret that energy never lies... And other tips for staying energized and fulfilled.

Sonoran Living on Wed. 7/26 9:00-10:00

Arizona Midday on Thursday 7/27 11:00-12:00

Tune in if you can!

What are you doing to stay energized? Here are some tips:

Breathe - Fill your body with much needed oxygen.
Laugh - Be passionate and enjoy life.
Move - Move vigorously to shake off toxic energy.
Love - Completely adore your children, family and friends.
Forgive - Let go of grievances...Life's too short.

Have an energized day!

I am so happy to be alive and to have a connection with all of life. The truth is I am in love. Not with any one person, although that would be cool as heck, but with life. Pretty much every minute of every day I feel elated just to be here.

Thank you all for being a part of my world, a part of my joy.

Namaste

I recommend everyone see The Inconvenient Truth. It is an inspiring and thought provoking movie educating us about global warming. It made me proud of Al Gore for standing up and speaking the truth.

It also refreshed/renewed my faith in the process of life. Here is a man who lost (sort of) the presidency and went on to make a contribution to the world that seems even more poignant.
